For the past few years, the team at Brooklyn Horror have kept a slot in their schedule for @certifiedforgot.bsky.social — even as they’ve grown. It would mean a lot if you could help us spread the word and fill the house next weekend.
Join Certified Forgotten and Tina Romero at Brooklyn Horror
Certified Forgotten is sitting down with Tina Romero at Brooklyn Horror for a chat about her debut feature, 'Queens of the Dead.'

I’m a firm believer in horror movies being very helpful in dealing with mental health struggles. I talked with advocacy and support group Victims and Villains about using pop culture and horror to address mental health. (And their film festival this weekend)

Victims and Villains is dedicated to deconstructing the stigma surrounding mental health through pop culture and horror.

Comic Geeks has a good pull list that also sends an email reminder of the week’s books. It also lets you scan by cover which makes things a lot quicker. Plus they include artbooks and RPG guides. And it’s thorough. Even my weird unknown indie stuff is in there.

I have editors that will say “get this to me whenever” and I will labor over it for too long. My writing is always better with a hard deadline.
